Spring is springin’ and birds are chirpin’...and the sun is finally (almost) out to play. March is here! This month’s roundup showcases our favorite brands, ideas, and random stuff, no explanation necessary. As the seasons change and inspiration hits, take a look at what we’re currently obsessing over.
Spring Cleaning
The Magic of Tidying Up has become another Netflix phenomenon, and for good reason. However, Marie Kondo and her KonMari method of cleaning and organization have been around for years. Whether you’re ready for a major fashion overhaul or just want to examine your possessions a little more deeply, we can all get our lives together one KonMari step at a time. Now ask yourself, “does this spark joy?”

If you’ve been living under a rock and haven’t seen HBO’s Insecure, then I’m sorry in advance. If you have, then you already recognize and respect Yvonne Orji’s genius. Add author/maker of moves/social commentator Luvvie Ajayi into the mix and the pair is pure magic! Named after the “two things they can’t live without”, their podcast is an uplifting and funny narrative about life, love, money, and everything in between. We’re here for it.

Going Outside, Regularly
This may sound obvious, but going outside is a lost art. When’s the last time you looked away from your screen and took a long walk? Can you remember the last time you took in everything around you and appreciated nature in all its glory? As the rain dies down, let’s make it a point to unplug, get some fresh air, and recharge.

Rih Rih is the queen of versatility, period. We all know that her Fenty brand is breaking barriers and cashing checks, but a few products have been become our ultimate faves. Her Stunna Lip Paint is long-lasting, non-sticky, and full of pop. What’s not to love?!
Cristina Martinez aka Sew Trill
We. Love. Black. Art. When an artist’s aesthetic gives you all of the feels, it’s mission accomplished. Cristina’s take on women, beauty, and lifestyle intrigues us...now the only thing left to do is pick out which prints we want to order!
Black History...Everyday
We’re bigger than a day, a month, or even a season. Taking the time to appreciate our contributions and highlight us in a positive way isn’t only beautiful, it’s completely necessary. Cheers to celebrating Black History all the time, because it matters.
